Chapter 160

Hearing Orochimaru's words, Terumi Mei was clearly stunned for a moment, and her expression also quickly started to become hesitant.

"The person who was following you, Fifth Mizukage, before was Kaguya Wen Shengzai, right?

And since he returned to the Hidden Mist Village, then you, Fifth Mizukage, should also be quite clear about how Kaguya Wen Shengzai was 'resurrected,' right?

How about it? Don't you want him to be truly resurrected? Your Hidden Mist Village is in great need of high-end combat power right now, right? And you, Fifth Mizukage, even brought him with you when visiting Konoha, which also shows that your relationship is quite good, right?"

Honestly, at the beginning, Terumi Mei had actually decided to stand on Konoha's side. After all, anyone with eyes could see that the so-called "Konoha Crush Plan," after Jiraiya returned to Konoha in advance, could not possibly succeed.

However, facing the conditions Orochimaru was now proposing, Terumi Mei was still hesitant.

Although the risk of working with Orochimaru to kill the Third Hokage is great, if it could really make Wen Shengzai resurrected...

"Mizukage-sama, please don't believe Orochimaru's words. How cunning and dangerous he is, I believe I don't need to say more; you should have heard of it long ago, right?

Now the Fourth Kazekage here is Orochimaru, which means the real Fourth Kazekage is probably in bad shape. Cooperating with such a faithless person is undoubtedly digging one's own grave."

Seeing the hesitation and struggle on Terumi Mei's face, the Third Hokage, who was originally as steady as an old dog, also started to panic a little.

Originally old and frail, even facing Orochimaru alone, he didn't have much confidence. If a Fifth Mizukage were added, then he would really have no chance of winning at all.

What kind of strength the Fifth Mizukage has, the Third Hokage doesn't know, but anyone who can become a Kage of a village must have something.

And it was also because of having the same idea that Orochimaru proposed the intention of cooperation to Terumi Mei.

Coming to Konoha this time, originally he, Orochimaru, was fully prepared to kill the Third Hokage, but now there is an extra Fifth Mizukage, so he, Orochimaru, is also worried about what accidents might happen.

"Hokage-sama, if I can assist you in repelling Orochimaru this time, I wonder what benefits Konoha Village can give our Hidden Mist Village?"

Facing the conditions thrown out by Orochimaru, Terumi Mei didn't directly agree to the other party, but turned to look at the Third Hokage beside her and asked.

And hearing Terumi Mei's inquiry, the Third Hokage also realized at this moment that wanting to get something for free was definitely impossible. If he couldn't give conditions that the Mizukage was satisfied with, the other party would mostly choose to defect to Orochimaru.

"If Mizukage-sama is willing to lend a helping hand this time, then our Konoha Village can conclude a peace treaty with the Hidden Mist Village and return the three ninja swords we confiscated on the battlefield before to the Hidden Mist Village."

The Seven Ninja Swords of the Hidden Mist Village are famous ninja tools in the ninja world, but for those who don't know how to use them, they are undoubtedly ordinary collectibles.

However, the Seven Ninja Swords have extraordinary significance to the Hidden Mist Village, and the Third Hokage also believes that such a bargaining chip is enough to make the Mizukage lend him a helping hand.

"Hokage-sama, just three ninja swords might not be enough. Besides that, I also want to obtain the 'Impure World Reincarnation' technique.

Of course, I can guarantee to you that I will not use this technique on Konoha ninjas, and I will absolutely not pass this technique on to a second person.

If Hokage-sama can agree to these two conditions, then not only Orochimaru, but even the Sand ninjas who invaded Konoha this time, we, the Hidden Mist Village, will also help with all our might."

The "Impure World Reincarnation" technique is not only a forbidden technique but also a secret technique recorded in the Hokage Scroll, and only the Hokage and the direct disciples of the Hokage lineage have the qualification to learn it.

The Third Hokage knows very well that Terumi Mei is purely asking for a sky-high price now, but in the current situation, he has to make corresponding trade-offs.

And the reason Terumi Mei proposed this additional condition is also very simple, which is that she wants to find a way to resurrect Wen Shengzai. Even if she really cooperates with Orochimaru, Terumi Mei cannot judge whether the other party will deceive herself.

Then, in that case, why doesn't she just get the 'Impure World Reincarnation' technique into her hands and then study it slowly herself?

If it were before, three ninja swords would indeed be enough to satisfy her, Terumi Mei's, appetite, but now that it involves Wen Shengzai's resurrection, Konoha Village has to add some more money.

After all, compared to Wen Shengzai's importance, let alone mere three ninja swords, even seven ninja swords have to stand aside!

As long as Wen Shengzai is really resurrected, then wouldn't she, Terumi Mei, have marriage... cough cough, the point is, wouldn't the Kaguya Clan be able to continue in their Hidden Mist!

And just when Terumi Mei and the Third Hokage were trapped in the Four Violet Flames Formation, on the other side, Wen Shengzai, after a white mist shrouded his body, used the Transformation Jutsu to directly turn into Orochimaru's appearance.

Orochimaru transformed into the Fourth Kazekage to sneak attack the Third Mizukage, and he transformed into the other party's appearance to sneak attack others—this should be quite reasonable, right?

Because a large number of Sand ninjas are like this, Konoha is currently in a mess, and even the heads of the major bloodline families in Konoha have chosen to come out to fight.

Of course, there are also people sitting on the sidelines at this moment, such as a certain man who has always been the scapegoat.

The base of Konoha's Root is not a secret to a transmigrator like Wen Shengzai.

The war is raging outside, the Third Hokage is even trapped in the Four Violet Flames Formation, and the only Anbu ninjas who can remain unmoved at this moment are the Root ninjas of Konoha.

Wen Shengzai had just invaded the Root when many Root ninjas who sensed him chose to attack him one after another. However, it is a pity that the combat power gap between the two sides was too large. These ninjas who rushed up hadn't even had a chance to attack before they were stabbed into a hornet's nest by the bone spurs that exploded from Wen Shengzai's body.

Wen Shengzai, holding a bone sword, killed all the way, but Danzo, who was hiding in the dark, seemed quite calm and didn't appear for a long time.

Until nearly half of the Root ninjas were slaughtered, and finally, Danzo's two most loyal lackeys, Yamanaka Fu and Aburame Torune, were beaten to a half-crippled state, he finally walked out in front of Wen Shengzai slowly.

"You are not Orochimaru. Who exactly are you? Why do you know this place, and who sent you here!"

Looking at Danzo slowly walking out from the shadows, Wen Shengzai slowly pulled out a bone spur that had pierced the heart of a Root ninja, and then the look in his eyes when looking at the other party also became quite playful.

"Who else could I be if I'm not your partner Orochimaru? It's just that I've changed to a different container as a body now.

Don't forget, we are old buddies who dug up the First Hokage's grave together and designed this Konoha Crush Plan together. Now that you, Danzo, are pulling up your pants and pretending not to know me, are you preparing to let me take the blame for you..."

"Shut up! You guy cannot possibly be Orochimaru. Although I don't know who you are, since you know so many things you shouldn't know, and you even came here, then I can only ask you to go to your death!

As for your origin and purpose, after you die, I will look for the answer on your corpse."

Although Wen Shengzai knowing about the secret collusion between him and Orochimaru made Danzo quite surprised, Wen Shengzai, who was disguised as Orochimaru, was basically a fake at a glance in his, Danzo's, eyes.

Not to mention that after receiving the intelligence, he had long learned that the real Orochimaru was already fighting the Third Hokage, just in terms of temperament, Wen Shengzai couldn't imitate the gloomy and perverted atmosphere of Orochimaru.

"That is truly a coincidence. Not only do you want to kill me, but actually, my purpose in coming here is also to kill you.

Or to be more precise, I don't want you to die yet, but want to use you to complete some things, and then kill you."

Wen Shengzai looking for trouble with Danzo is not just because he hates this person. After all, he is a Hidden Mist ninja now, not a Konoha ninja, so Danzo's thick face and black heart have nothing to do with him. Anyway, the other party has always been pitting their Konoha ninjas.

The reason for looking for Danzo at this juncture is mainly because Wen Shengzai has taken a fancy to the other party's body... ah, ptooey, he has taken a fancy to the things the other party has on his body.
